Re: debug not working with CLP?? -- MIDRANGE-L

I used both  suggested options, and the debugger doesn't show a page, blank
or otherwise.  If i run the program it just runs as if it isn't in debug,
but it is.

I'll just continue to change it to CLLE to debug, then change it back after.

If the debug screen opens and you see no source, then you did not
compile the program with debug information, as someone else
mentioned. Probably. I don't remember, but it might be that you get
no message when debugging OPM programs, as I think you do with an ILE
program that has no debug information.
 
If you do have source showing, F6 sets the breakpoint. I strongly
suggest also using F1 at the command line, where you can get more
information. E.g., you can set a breakpoint that breaks when a
certain condition is met. There are also options to run for a certain
number of statements, IIRC.
 
If you have source showing and set no breakpoint, you can have the
program stop at the first executable statement by using F10,
otherwise used for stepping statement by statement. If you use F12
without setting a breakpoint, you will not stop in the running of the
program. In this latter case, use DSPMODSRC to show the source again,
then set a breakpoint or use F10.
 
Also, as I said in another post, I suggest doing everything as CLLE -
there are only a couple gotchas to watch out for, and you can find
about them in the CL manual, IIRC, or in an ILE manual.
